Psychostick/Space Vampires Vs. Zombie Dinosaurs In 3d/2012 CD Review

Psychostick are a band that mixes hardcore and thrash metal together with a musical style they call humorcore and this is a review of their self released 2012 album "Space Vampires Vs, Zombie Dinosaurs In 3D".

Drums range from s low, mid paced to fast drumming with some blast beats being utilized at times, while the bass playing h as a very strong and powerful sound with heavy riffing that dominates throughout the recording.

Rhythm guitars range from slow, mid paced to fast riffs that combine thrash metal with hardcore together to create a sound of their own with some clean playing being used at times, while the lead guitars when t hey are utilized are classic rock guitar solos and leads.

Vocals range from hardcore style yells, thrash style singing, spoken word parts and samples as well as some clean vocals and raps, while the lyrics cover humorous themes, as for the production it h as a very strong, powerful, heavy and professional sound for being a self released recording and you can hear all of the musical instruments that are present on this recording.

In my opinion Psychostick are a very great sounding humorous crossover thrash band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this recording. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Welcome To The Show" "Because Boobs" "Hate Times 8" and "My Clinging Girlfriend". RECOMMENDED BUY.
